THE TWO BAGS

~Aesop's Fables~




Every man carries Two Bags about with him, one in front and one behind, and both are packed full of faults.  

The Bag in front contains his neighbors' faults, the one behind contains his own.  

Therefore, it is that men do not see their own faults, but they never fail to see those of others.

    And the trick is to somehow switch the bags.

    True, true, true. We notice the faults of others but fail to see past the beam in our own eyes like it says in Matthew 7. How how we need a reminder of this daily!

    Thank you so so so much for coming to see me. My son passed a few weeks ago and I am- as are the rest of my children- trying to get through the days.
